Android resource compilation failed when opening a new project in android studio

Question

I have this error when opening new project with my android studio

Android resource compilation failed Output: C:\Projects\Popular2\app\src\main\res\drawable-v24\ic_launcher_foreground.xml:1: error: not well-formed (invalid token).

Command: C:\Users\Personal.gradle\caches\transforms-1\files-1.1\aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows.jar\e2bfab9f446f5b6bef325bd9d21fcd8e\aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows\aapt2.exe compile --legacy -o C:\Projects\Popular2\app\build\intermediates\res\merged\debug C:\Projects\Popular2\app\src\main\res\drawable-v24\ic_launcher_foreground.xml

Daemon: AAPT2 aapt2-3.2.1-4818971-windows Daemon #1

I have tried to clean and rebuild the app but didn't help! Any help ?

Can you post the content of C:\Projects\Popular2\app\src\main\res\drawable-v24\ic_launcher_foreground.xml? There could be an extra space between the opening bracket < and the XML node. — Izabela Orlowska

You should : Go to your project location

delete the drawable-v24 folder.
delete the mipmap-anydpi-v26 if exist.
rebuild your project.
